Share

Former National Democratic Congress(NDC) leader Chishimba Kambwili has re-joined the the ruling Patritic Front (PF) and has pledged to support President Edgar Lungu during the August general election.

Speaking a colourful ceremony when he was welcomed back into PF by PF National Chairperson Samuel Mumba, PF Secretary General Davies Mwila among other party officials, Mr Kambwili said that he has decided to renew his membership with the PF to support the party’s development agenda.

Mr Kambwili said that PF has never departed from its pro poor policies and wants to ensure there is continued development, adding that the PF administration is the only government that has delivered tremendous development in just 9 years.

Mr Kambwili said parties that subscribe to tribalism must not be supported by any well-meaning Zambians.

And welcoming Mr Kambwili, Mr Mukupa said the PF welcomes all members including those who return to the party. He said the PF will work with Mr. Kambwili to ensure that the PF wins the August polls.

Meanwhile, PF Secretary General Davies Mwila called for unity and discipline in the party. Mr. Mwila said people must be able to embrace one another further stating that more people are expected to join and rejoin the party.

He said the party has already commenced mobilization and further stating that Mr. Kambwili re-joining the party is part of the mobilization.

Meanwhile, Lusaka Province Chairman Kennedy Kamba said any form of indiscipline will not be tolerated in the party.

Mr. Kamba said youths are expected to respect the party leadership.

    • If as a member of one party, I aggressively preach and warn the public on the dangers of COVID19 and the public believes me. what are we to say of the same public if I cross to another party and come back to tell them that COVID19 doesn’t exist, and they believe me AGAIN?
      BOTH Kambwili and his followers are stupid and hungry opportunists who shouldn’t even be given audient in the public domain.
      Truth is that as it is KAMBWILI is a CONVICTED FRAUDSTER who BY LAW can NEVER HOLD PUBLIC OFFICE for the rest of his life. And his followers should undertsnad that he’s re-joining PF to AVOID JAIL. So don’t be gullible and sheepishly scream “IMBWILI IMBWILI!!!” in praise of a CRIMINAL!!!

  3. To who it may concern,
    Imagine five years off third term of President Lungu and Mr. Kambwili.

    “All federal employment background checks are designed to make sure each person hired to a government job is “reliable, trustworthy, of good conduct and character, and loyal to the United States.” At a basic level, these background checks usually include criminal history searches and credit history checks.”

    GRZ what’s going on.
    PF time out. Telltale sign of fragile state.

  5. When people say CB chaps talk a lot…BUFFOON CK is a typical example even if they mistreated his wife and daughter in police cells …now the problem he will have is trying to prove to him new friends that he is truly with them so he has to use his big mouth again and land himself in more big trouble.

    As for NDC its finished as he had bribed them and its full of trogon horses like MMD…Zambian politics is sick to the core we need to get rid of all these people like BUFFOON CK.

  8. Time for the insults to “change goal”. After being one of the most celebrated darling partner to UPND, he will suddenly become an uncouth personality from the same people who showered Kambwili angelic praises.

  9. Welcome back home. This is evidence of how popular our party is. It is also evidence of how toxic the upnd is. Why do all non tongas end up parting ways with the upnd? It says a lot about how evil and tribal that party is. They wont rest only until a tonga rules them. This is evident by the continuous fielding of the perennial loser hh, who happens to be a Tonga.

  10. There seems to be a certain people in Zambia so prone to political opportunism manifested by the disgusting habit of swallowing one’s own vomit ?. First it was Mwamba GBM, now it’s Chimbwili Lufumo.

  11. Such is life. What goes around comes around, the same way a village chicken does: after eating grasshoppers, ants and worms, it has where to go to at the eleventh hour. His heart and soul is PF. Home is where you go to when all else fails.

  12. And now his court cases will vanish.

    Anyway, if there is a change of government in August, the joke Kambwili will be put in jail for a long time.

  13. PF is a safe haven for him. His court cases are getting too hot for him. The return to PF has nothing to do with principles. He thinks PF will protect him from jail time. Who knows, it may happen!

  14. To my fellow patriots and citizens CK and PF are a by gone , so lets mobilize and support and vote for HH and
    UPND as we did for Sata even when we knew that we could not expect much , as we have seen the
    PF and leadership failure and that cannot allow the third term with continued economic mismanagement at all.

    Lusaka and CB , no CK and PF again

  15. The tribal talk is now a scratched record. Try something else. One thing that Chishimba Kambwili has proved is that HH has a good sense of judgement of character. If he had been announced as running mate, it would have been the end of the UPND and the alliance. No one needs friends so badly as to have Chishimba Kambwili. It is obvious that President Lungu will not touch him with a barge pole.

  16. Elections are becoming too expensive; it’s only parties that can raise millions that will survive and once again it’s UPND and PF.

  17. So all that he was talking was all not true about PF?He was saying all the rubbish about PF and today overnight everything
    Good about PF? Zambian politicians are a
    Real embarrassment.GBMs prediction was
    Right as birds of the same feather flock and
    Eat together.

  20. Mr Kambwili must remember that “John the baptist” and the priest that baptised him on the parliament grounds in the past are still in PF. If his intention is to come and start making funny things in the party they will baptise him for the second time, this time round it will be by immersion. So Bwana Kambwili uyi chefye other wise you will enter through one door only to get out through the other. Bakateka just be careful, this man may not be very genuine, accept him cautiously because he is Zambian. But his conviction has nothing to do with the membership to the party, he is still a convicted criminal.

  21. Often bloggers here make statements such as e.g ” PF, Lungu, Kambwili, GBM, etc, think that Zambians are foo.uls”. The reality is that these people do not “THINK that Zambians are fuuo.ls”, but part of Zambians are really are fouols, otherwise there is no other word to describe those who entrust to be led by the likes of GBM, Chimbwili, etc.

  26. In the United States of America, they have Rafael Edward Cruz, commonly referred to as Ted Cruz. Mr. Trump told him off and called Cruz’s wife “ugly”. Today, Teddy is number one fan of Trump. Is CK Zambia’s Cruz?

  27. When Kambwili joined the party he suddenly became sugar. His sins of insulting the party and the tribe were forgiven. The promises were not honoured, his ka party was stolen. His members started expelling him. The party and it’s cadres were clapping their hands. Now the Lion has gone back home out of frustration caused by the party and his court cases. The party cadres are fuming. The lion is back home to hit back at the party and probably escape the jaws of justice. Watch the space

  28. Zambians have a historical choice to make. They can continue on a path of Ruin by voting for ECL and PF or vote out these Corrupt, incompetent and Visionless PF thugs and Cadres. Another 5 years of ECL Rule will be a disaster for Zambians. The Economy will get worse and People’s lives will be ruined. The only hope is HH and UPND who can turnaround the Economy. Lets vote 4 change of Govt. HH aka Bally will fix it.

  29. So what value will this Corrupt Convict bring to PF? Will CK’s return to PF reduce Poverty, reduce prices,increase real incomes, reduce corruption, reduce lawlessness etc? The answer is a big No! So ECL expects Zambians to vote for continued suffering? Suffering Zambians need a change of Govt. HH and UPND are the only Hope to turnaround the Economy and improve People’s lives. Vote for Prosperity and HH aka Bally will fix it.

  31. July 14, 2019 : Davies Mwila tells Kambwili to stop calling President Lungu at night while insulting him during the day

    PF and Davies Mwila, told Zambians already, that the Insults that Kambwili was hauling on ECL were a mere staged theater. Fuuolish Zambians, did not get it. But are suprised how ECL forgave Kambwili and are again suprised why he is back to PF. nope…this should not come as a surprise. ECL, CK, GBM, and others know they can do this dirty and get away with it, because the majority of Zambians fipuba, and are easily bought.
    And some fuuls are even calling Kambwili a lion…, a hero….and can’t see anything wrong…what a joke?

  32. The most unprincipled despicable species ever to walk the land of Zambia. Mind you there are many others where he has gone as well, but his shameless manoeuvres take the biscuit. He is also a disgrace to his family who were traumatised by the cohort that he now dines with again

  35. I expected CK to do this because he had choice between going to jail or support the incumbent. It was clear. He is a man with knives on his neck. But CK tauli imbwili nomba. Uli truly kambwili with a big tail folded downwards. You have betrayed Luanshya people. We shall see what happens to u come 2022. Good luck.

  37. PF ; Jail or Rejoin PF
    CK : I will re-join PF bwana sinifuna kuyenda ku jele

    The good thing is that he can not stand as an MP, he is a convicted criminal who wants to escape justice by re-joining PF. He would earned respect from Zambians if he had just owned up his crime.

  38. Bembas in Zambia are an embarrassment. The most untrustworthy people to have walked the Zambian soil. If you are doubting look at these bakandile. GBM, Dr. Chilufya, Chitotela, Nawakwi, Chilufya Tayali, Chief Chitimukulu, Chief Kazembe, Kambwili, Fr. Lupupa, Mushimba, Nkandu Luo, Davies Mwila, and many more like them, Ask yourself when they ever did anything to the benefit of the people of Zambia. Due to their corrupt and selfish behavior, they have handed the country to incompetent and most corrupt person ever seen in the country. Edgar “Changwa” Lungu. The word CORRUPT will be inscribed on his tombstone. Sadly, because poverty and p[erpetual hunger, Zambians can’t think. Brain cells eat each other because hunger.

  39. Looks like Lusaka Times is really finding it difficult to report on some issues eg that this occasion was marred by violence that resulted in serious injury to a reporter and Police Officer as well as damage to police vehicle. Also, no report on the heavy police presence surrounding the ANC secretariate.

  41. I don’t think CK has really joined PF he has just gone to help and see that HH doesn’t win the election, if you can remember very well CK doesn’t want to be in any other party structure but the president himself , he left HH because he couldn’t allow him to be the one in front so he left him.
    Generally CK just want to pass time and gain more strength just to come back and rejoin his party

  42. Kambwili should be arrested. He mislead a lot of youth and some even lost lives. Now he is back in PF? This is a very selfish person with No Leadership Integrity. “The youth in Roan be Smart” show this FOOL you don’t need him. PF Leadership as Stupid and Foolish like the same Kambwili.

  43. And where is the Min of Health? No Social/physical distancing in this photo and no one seems to take the PF party to task. Ninshi these covid regulations only apply to some and not to all? Awe ine nakangiwa to understand the purpose of all these laws and regulations that we pass. Why can’t they lead by example in simple things like social/physical distancing.

  44. WELL COME BACK TO WHERE YOU BELONG BADALA BA CHISHIMBA KAMBWILI. YOU ARE A BRAVE MAN. NOW LET’S whip under 5 hands down. let’s teach under 5 a unity lesson- this stinking tribalist.

  45. Corruption scandals: 48 Houses Social Security Cash Luxury Presidential Jet Ambulances Fire Trucks Mukula Trees Ndola-Lusaka Rd Malawi Maizegate Fuelgate Swaziland landgate Zesco Loans Corruption scandals: 48 Houses Social Security Cash Luxury Presidential Jet Ambulances Fire Trucks Mukula Trees Ndola-Lusaka Rd Malawi Maizegate Fuelgate Swaziland landgate Zesco Loans

    And where are all the UPND opposition strategists to jump all over this by putting ads on TV and radio of all the bad rhetoric Chishimba Kambwili has ever said against Lungu and PF. Use his own words to discredit him and the PF… in civilized societies what’s just done would be tantamount to political suicide.
    In Zambia people just join these parties not out of ideology beliefs but just to get paid. It’s pathetic even for unprincipled characters like these.

  46. UPND is the causer of all these come and go back. No human being is perfect but you need people to succeed in life. UPND want perfect people to work with. Remember when HH was in prison they couldn’t trust GBM to run the party and that’s where PF capitalised to laugh at GBM. Kambwili wanted to running mate to HH but they couldn’t agree on that. Ma politicians badyela mums politics so he had to go back. Call him what you want the man can make a huge difference ECL carrying the day in August.

  47. #Lungu Nipompwe

    Bushe which school did you got to? To you all people coming from Luapula, Muchinga and Northern provinces are Bembas? Your inner hate is going to kill you.

  48. Chapwa CK ni president wa Zambia mu 2026.
    Seka uponoke.
    Ck will lead before hh.
    This move further buries and dashes the hopes of a tribal party ever having a chance of forming Government.

  49. If I were CK and was faced with this upnd selfishness, I would do the same. Hit ’em hard.
    Anyone with 5 senses would do the same.
    What does upnd think it is.
    You wonder the democracy upnd knows.
    Regardless, when you know, you know.
    THAT IN POLITICS THERE ARE NO PERMANENT FOES AND NO PERMANENT FRIENDS.

  51. Not all people who come from Luapula, Northern or Muchinga province are Bembas, Nawakwi is a Namwanga and Chief Kazembe is not a Bemba chief for your information

  52. Kambwili as Minister in PF government was called corrupt and should be fired. He was fired and all a sudden he became a hero with the Upnd falling head over heels to have him in their ranks. Today he rejoins PF they say he has no principles…oh no I beg to differ. People without principles are those who welcome him when leaves the PF
    They can’t distinguish an axe from a hoe. Kambwili should not have been accommodated by the opposition let alone accept him. If a tomato is rotten it’s rotten no excuses simply because of politics
